Research-Based Model, Embodying Nature for Inner Personal-Collective Relationship Healing
The Harmony Project was initiated to help nurture regenerative, altruistic connection, and inner personal/transpersonal relationship via our connection and relationship with Nature, the Earth. Our Natural Design: Holistic Health, Healing, and Environment, research-based model embodies the knowledge of Nature’s inherent relationships (includng natural frequencies, cycles, rhythms, and flows). The integrative application of this knowledge interwoven in ancient, Ancestral-Indigenous, and Eastern wisdoms; healing technologies; wellbeing self-practices; and relational/folk/ethno-botany is essential in remembering and cultivating our deeper connections. Inner relationship and personal healing work are cultivated and supported in engendering altruistic interpersonal relations and community.
Living Sanctuary’s Apothecary provides holistic health mobile clinics and short-term healing residences with comprehensive, immersive services, education, and resources. These heart-centered, nature-aligned offerings help to nourish the mind-body-spirit, optimize health and wellbeing, improve the quality of life, and heal emotional pain/trauma for restoring internal and external reciprocal relationship.

Releasing Internalized Narratives that Compromise Holistic Health & Wellbeing
Bringing health and wellbeing to communities through transformative storytelling and therapeutic cultural arts infused with ancient, diasporic wisdoms and healing systems. Immersive experientials of altruistic interconnectedness; ancient, ancestral-indigenous technologies; and the natural world deepen awareness and presence. In escavating conscious and unconscious personal-multigenerational-collective innerscapes, healing trauma, and transforming our narratives, we are able to align our lived experience with innate truth and wisdom.
Mobile Clinics Program
Our focus is to help heal adverse childhood and life experiences and related beliefs, behaviors, and potential vulnerability to further harm. Adversity and trauma (including transgenerational trauma) significantly increase risks for emotional dysregulation, executive dysfunction, stress response overstimulation, re-traumatization, anxiety, inflammation, and chronic health conditions. We also contribute to the cultivation of revitalizing relationships, communication, and other foundational, interpersonal/ personal-collective needs. Restorative, community interactions/relationships offer protective benefits to assist with reducing vulnerability to further harm that undermines altruistic connection and reciprocity.
Providing Regenerative Resources
Participants are invited into a dedicated space to deepen awareness and inner connection (i.e., to witness, explore, reflect, and release) to re-story non-affirming, personal-transgenerational-collective narratives in restorative community. Our programs utilize depthwork to access pre-colonial ancestral-indigenous creation stories for participants to reclaim their voice and innate purpose in the spaciousness of authentic expression.
We engage in the multidimensional work of ancestry, memory, and inner-collective relationship (minkisi) through layered and vibrant storytelling via symbolism and multiple mediums, mindfulness, and emotional/mind-body release; expanding our concept of Self and connections with nature, the Earth, and community. This work calls forth interwoven histories, traditions, places, and loved ones that story and shape our emotional-mental wellness, physical restoration, spiritual growth, and life healing practices.
This depthwork clarifies and dismantles internalized narratives (including forced assimulation) while intuitively, re-weaving our identity and sense of Self accessing ancient collective and ancestral-indigenous creation stories. Remembering inner truths is fluidly expressed through developing consistent, creative practices; intuition/empathic cultivation; healing arts, ceremony, and ritual; intimate gatherings, workshops; and therapeutic co-creation of a community minkisi (a “medicine” sculpture or installation). This integrative approach to Self-practice nourishes and revitalizes via radical inner-care, deep healing, and medicine sharing (simply by full presence of our being).
Immersive Healing
The Minikisi Initiative provides an immersive healing experience of services, education, events, and interpersonal/inner relationship building. We integrate dedicated, holistic health with ancient, diasporic, and transformative approaches and modalities for nurturing creativity and facilitating restoration and wellbeing. At the conclusion of the mobile clinic an ceremonial event and “exhibit” of the co-created minkisi as an expression of the participants’ alchemized inner medicine.

The mobile clinics are available as online and/or onsite programs. These offerings help contribute to sustainable healing resources within the community and various restorative settings. Our emphasis of assisting underserved/disadvantaged communities, who are disproportionately BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) contributes to revitalization. Through our endeavors, we aspire to assist in unifying humanity in renewed relationship with one another and Nature/the Earth.
